Fabulous post Suzy and I quite agree. My kids are on their separate routes now, on the cusp of adulthood, but we have always had fun and I have loved being a mum.
You know, teachers have a great influence in our lives. I, when I was in the civil teaching, never realised this, I had many parents who would be shocked at the way I spoke of their children and often they would say 'are we talking about the same child?' Because they do listen to us, more than they do their parents. I know that with my current position, we certainly have an influence because it is a boarding school and the resident staff are very much involved in that time when the student would be spending time with their parents. I am often at school until late with these students, as I cannot help but be there with them. A time, like any child when they come home from school is that they are very much want to talk and chat about their day and of course they need help with their homework.
Well Clint manages to star and direct his own stuff, so I don't see why you can't play Crazy island man's mother... So now we are not at the Hilton? I wish you and the director would sort yourselves out... I just want a brawl and to get drunk.
Oh lovely lady, it is so sad when we have to say goodbye to them isn't it? Why don't you write them a little note that they can read later. That is what I did with my students who were graduating. I wrote them all cards, so it they would not see me upset. That way you can say goodbye properly. My headmaster wrote me a note when I graduated and I still have it now.
Take a deep breath and relax a little... I was grumpy today, which is not like me, I suppose age has something to do with it, my tolerance levels are lowering as I age.
Good for you. I have been to the supermarket and to the pub. Good stuff. Although the saga here over the last two days has had me gripped... I've gotta start packing soon, to go home to Austria!
Oh yes, I'll be the barmaid. I will need a security man though, because you know how these brawls are, I might need some help throwing them out... I love being a bar maid, some of my best memories were as a bar maid. The laughs we used to have.
Robert? I was admitted to hospital after the birth of my daughter when I suffered severe post natal depression. I was in for two weeks, while they stabilised my medication and I could have the time to recover, on the whole it took me two years to recover from the post natal depression.
I know this is different, but the hospital was a wing where there were many people with all kinds of mental difficulties. And it was not as bad as I thought it was going to be, I went home at the weekend, I had excellent help and it was beneficial to me and I was very scared, frightened. It may not work for you, but try to have an open mind and don't fight it. You are not detained, you are free to take yourself home if you want to. However, I hope you find the right counsellor, the right medication and that you can go on and be free from this mental prison you are in now. And hopefully, you can rest your soul and have some peace. Yes, you are scared, but don't allow the fear to stand in your way of your recovery.
RE: WOMEN RULE THE WORLD
I would like to see a woman rule for a time though. I think it would be interesting. We are actually fairly smart, well sometimes.
